Sendoh's POV
While I was on the way to meet Coach Taoka, my mind recalled the things that happened in the past week.
Ayane and I haven't seen each other after that Gala night. We sporadically just updated each other with our daily lives through text and chat. We only saw each other thrice, virtually, through video calls, all of which I initiated.
I didn't want to bother her, considering that her competition must be one for the books, but I want to give her space so she can completely focus with practicing.
Ayane's upcoming competition must be very important for her musical career, the same way the Regional games would be for me.
Being the competetive girl she is, I know she wants to bag the 1st spot.There were distant cheering noises and girls giggling and teasing each other so I turned my head to see where the sounds were coming from. I quickly scanned the whole room, and locked eyes with Chiyoko.
Ah, yes. I always seem to forget that there's also a cheering squad that shares the gym with us.
Chiyoko froze in place upon seeing me. She didn't break eye contact so she waved excitedly and gave me smile.
She's smiling nonchalantly as if she didn't do anything disagreeable.
I sighed, deciding to just put it all aside for now. When I looked back at Chiyoko's direction, I just gave her a steely gaze.
